It would not be a problem for me with a missing gtalk app as I remove any stock app possible before flashing any ROM anyways. The only great thing Google has made, is the OS it self. Any stock app like sms, dialer, contact, music, email, gmail, gtalk, launcher, browser and so on are all ugly, useless, bad coded and way to limited for my taste. There are always better alternatives in the marked.

I'm only missing an alternative caller app to complete my perfect 3th party app collection.

Btw.

Gps works perfect for me with 3th party gps software. Are the people in here sure that its not the Google map app that's the problem? Like I said, goggle apps never works as it should.
[Desire Android Development] gaddy-:
please don't remove the status bar, I use wifi/mobiledata/audio/airplane mode buttons.. it's very useful for me and for all the others I think ;)

about the use of custom brightness values is another important feature that I think many people will regret not having.

Obviously it is my opinion..

however thanks for this beautiful ROM

best regards

@dk_zero-cool

Had it with other apps as well :(. Also, the problem I detected isn't always arising. Had it 2x now in 1 week and I'm using GPS apps a lot. Gmaps navi as well as runtastic and sports tracker (as I suspected the app).

Anyway just did a full wipe and flashed 2.1.2. Let's see how it goes now :)
[Desire Android Development] dneill2006:
Let us know how GPS works for you on 2.1.2 after a full wipe please mate :)

I upgraded from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2 without wipe so maybe that's the cause...
[Desire Android Development] Harrysoon:
I'd be fine with that. I'm guessing the people who use v2 is outweighed by the people who don't.
[Desire Android Development] boomam:
I think the reason people are telling you that though is that the NexusS, spec wise, is near identical to a Desire, so there wouldn't be much point...granted, as you say, a new dev phone will be out soon, but not that many people will have one compared to something like a GS2 or Sensation, so whatever work you do, assuming you do, will have a very limited audience.

[Desire Android Development] zoltrix:
I'm sure this has been postedalready since 2.1.2 was released but I'm on my phone so its kinda hard to search. But since the autobrightness values changed, thhe screen never dims. Everything is enabled in relation to autobrightness.

Any fix? I lost 70% of my battery by lunch time.

Still on 2.1.1, not sure how Android's auto-brightness is like.

Hope I can still turn off those button lights.

Maybe someone can do a flashable mod for the old auto-brightness?

(Or probably its already there a few pages back.)

Somehow it feels like Oxygen is slowly becoming DevNull :P

I also got this problem, started about 3 days ago. The weird thing is that I have been using an old version 2.0.3 for a very long time, and haven't really done anything in the last couple of weeks.

[Desire Android Development] dk_zero-cool:
Why do people insist on pushing their system partition to the absolute minimum? I have 180mb just to be sure not to get any future problems, which I'm now very happy about. And with things like app2sd and data2sd, I don't see why It's so important to limit the partition that much.
[Desire Android Development] Harrysoon:
Been using it for a while. Got it when I tried SuperDuperAwesome Sense ROM and kept it when I switched back to Oxygen and had no problems with it. Both WiFi and mobile connections work great.
[Desire Android Development] Tillus:
Because many people (including me) don't want to use a2sd or d2sd because it slows the phone down and you have to rely on your (slow) sdcard (->can't change it). And to get /data as big as possible -to have enough space for apps and data, /system needs to be as small as possible. ;)
[Desire Android Development] kecinzer:
LOL you definatly make my day :D
[Desire Android Development] flakz0r:
Unfortunately, the Desire's internal memory is really, really slow. Most of the times, the SD card will be faster. You can test your Internal Memory and SD Card speeds with this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.j.performancetest&feature=search_result

My class 2 SD Card is way faster than my phone's internal memory :)
[Desire Android Development] xaps:
That may be true for sequential read/write rates, but surely not for IOPS.
[Desire Android Development] gazbea:
Interesting results for me using J Disk Benchmark 3.0

Data size = 10MB

Buffer = 4KB

Results:

SDCard

Write = 4.66MB/s

Read = 7.59MB/s

NAND

Write = 1.19MB/s

Read = 9.71MB/s
[Desire Android Development] SilverSurger:
This really has literally nothing to say as this tool measures sequential input, not the IOPS.
[Desire Android Development] Tillus:
and I dont give much on this benchmark-tools. My phone is much quicker without a2sd. Before - using A2SD- when I installed/updated an app from market the phone froze for seconds and starting apps took longer. It just feels much quicker and snappier without a2sd, no matter what these benchmarktools tell me. Same goes for Quadrant and Linpack btw. :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] jadephyre:
I'm using a Class 6 Card, and the Difference between internal memory and A2SD is barely noticeable.

Sure, they cost more than a cheap Class 2 Card, but we all potentially paid approximately 400-500 Euros for our Phones, so what the eff.

company directory

please help me out mates. I'm oxygen user since my root. Now I'm in company using exchange etc.. I can't find the way to access the company directory from oxygen rom. I believe I am just blind and it's possible but can't find it.

[Desire Android Development] pa.pn2:
ah ok

5 mb cache will get problems with other roms if i download market apps over 5mb, am i right?
[Desire Android Development] dk_zero-cool:
And It's important because we update our apps multiple times a day? And instead of 1 second delay when opening an app, with app2SD we have to wait 0.1 second longer. How does anyone live with that?
[Desire Android Development] madd0g:
Usually they all have market downloads linked to sdcard.
[Desire Android Development] kecinzer:
Again and again same question.

YES, small cache is not problem, because Market downloads goes to SDCard since Oxygen 1.0.4 ;)
[Desire Android Development] pa.pn2:
i know its with oxygen, but i asked for others roms..
[Desire Android Development] flakz0r:
ouglouck is correct, Corporate Address Book is also what i use to access my exchange account contacts, works perfectly.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Its not identicle to the Desire at all?

Super AMOLED display vs SLCD

1GB internal storage vs. 130mb~ (stock)

True 5 point multitouch vs no multitouch

The CPU/GPU also piss over the Snapdragon/Adreno.

I could get into a big debate but to be honest, you got to ask yourself what do you use your phone for and what do you want out of it.

I don't play mobile games, I don't use any CPU intensive tasks. I don't need a dual core and I'm happy with how speedy the Desire is and I expect the Nexus-S would be much better than it.

Not everything is about specs, you could be waiting 3-6 months for official updates with any other phone and even then using custom ROMs has its downfalls, look at the Sense 2.0/3.0 ports on the Desire at the moment for instance?

Nexus-S has 1 very good point that no other phone has, full developer support from Google in the framework.

The Desire-HD/Incredible S and every msm7x series phone with an AOSP ROM, ie. CyanogenMod is using a series of hacks and code from CodeAuroraForum just to get everything basically functioning to a minimal point, I really don't want that, I want something thats going to work pronto.

We are lucky with the Desire that it's brother is the N1 and they are 99% practically the same device.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
No because we had Oxygen redirect it to /sdcard/.cache :P

[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Does your DevNull include this too ? :eek:
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
I will push 2.1.3 when I have finished reworking OxygenSettings,

The light sensor settings was removed HOWEVER newer default values that most of the forum agrees are good have been pushed, over the past 2 days I have tested these new settings and they are much better and provide smooth transitions between differently lighted enviroments.

Talk2 will be replaced by Talk1 HOWEVER I will provide a flashable zip containing Talk2, that will install it and remove Talk1.

GenieWidget and Gmail will be readded.

OxygenSettings is going to get a major overhaul.

I am hoping to add the long press volume to skip tracks mod but I haven't got round to it yet, so it may/may not be included.
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Yes ofcourse, DevNull and Oxygen share much of the same code.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
nice :) Im using DevNull for a verry long time cause there are not much updates wich i like!! Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
DevNull is stock and staying that way it only contains bug fixes and slight changes to stop issues like this arising.
[Desire Android Development] KBanause:
So we can expect an oxygen version for the Nexus S? ;)

Greetings,

KBanause
[Desire Android Development] dk_zero-cool:
@AdamG

Your default light values in 2.1.3 still worries me. The 160 value that you are adding, isn't that going to make the light jump? I have tested these values on my phone a lot, And my phone does not have a value of 160. The lowest value is 10, and the second value jumps straight to 225, which wil make your screen values jump from 35 to 72 without a middle stop on the way.
[Desire Android Development] Bycek:
Strange.

I have value 160 but when I am in a dark room it stays 160 and just sometimes jumps to 10 for a while ...
[Desire Android Development] madd0g:
That would be *****in', new Google music app made me think about using the phone on my workouts aswell :]

Btw, hope you'll continue to work on the Oxygen after you'll get the NS.
[Desire Android Development] smokinjoe18:
@Adam G

The Nexus S would be my choice if i was changing my phone today for pretty much all the reasons you state above, but unfortunately my upgrades not due for a bit longer so i'll probably wait to see what google bring out next as a dev phone but definitely a choice I would agree with,

thanks Adam for your continued support of the Desire.
[Desire Android Development] AlxMAX:
Does that mean I can download a copy of the Oxygen sources from there? ;)
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Oxygen and DevNull sources have been public for around a week now.
[Desire Android Development] boomam:
You mis-understand my point.

Of course from a technical stand point they are not identical, but from a generational standpoint, they are. Both 1Ghz, etc;

If your happy with the Desire and its performance and see no need to jump to a proper next gen phone (Of which the NexusS isnt one), then perhaps a wait for the new "Nexus Three" would be more prudent?
[Desire Android Development] ouglouck:
New Music beta service / new Music app (Google I/O 2011)

@AdamG: answer tweet from AdamG

New Music beta app can be used on Oxygen (with Market Enabler / T-Mob US).

Old app remains with new one. Seems to work fine and all tags from MP3 seems to be read properly.

Even LifeVibes MusicFX is working with this app. Testing this combination to see.

And finally you can ask for an invitation to Music beta new service (for free for a while) using a proxy server (as only available from US). I'll see if I can obtain one invitation...
[Desire Android Development] madd0g:
Don't they check google account location ?
[Desire Android Development] juicebox666:
Can you explain how you get ask for an invitation via proxy server? I'm very insterested since I live in Canada. Could I also use this method to get Google Voice too? :D
[Desire Android Development] ouglouck:
[Off-topic]

Yes they do check your Google account. Hopefully, as you are passing through the location filter by using a proxy (hopefully) that should be fine... I tried and I'll see if that works or not.

You can use this proxy: http://zend2.com/index.php?e=no_hotlink and enter http://music.google.com/ for the address. BTW I have to say I found this tip on a french blog (I'm not clever enough to find this on my own...).

Can't say for Google voice, but I would imagine this goes through agreements with US network operators and as such would probably not work outside US. But I did not try.

Hope this helps.

I like the looks and the way the new app work for now.

Before the last update I was experiencing frequent camera FCs, while using it.

After each FC I couldn't use the camera unless I rebooted.

This update has made oxygen almost perfectly stable for me, so please don't revert it. :)

update:

Just when I thought this bug is fixed, it has returned.

I can't reproduce it when I want. I'll pull a logcat and try to see if there is an app or something that causes it because nobody besides me complains about this.

At first I thought it might be linked to the partition table, I was using the N1table so I switched back to stock as you can see from the df -h but nothing changed.

I did a full wipe and reinstalled the rom as well.

Does someone know where this come from ?

[Desire Android Development] Woodsy900:
could possibly have made it work... just did a reboot of the phone and it seems to be working but there is very little apps installed... one would assume as it is a streamlined rom it doesnt have many in the app list?
[Desire Android Development] mattman83:
3rd line of the 1st post states very clearly it's a minimalistic rom... so no there aren't tonnes of pre-installed apps. But that's also part of the reason why it's so fast and uses so little battery.

[Desire Android Development] J_B204:
I don't think the Nexus S is a big enough leap from the Desire to justify changing. The HTC Sensation looks a good phone but again, with ROMS like oxygen, the good old Desire is still every bit as good as almost all the newer phones. If you can wait I would wait for the next lot of phones to come out, maybe 6-9 months.

I tend to customise my Desire which makes it feel new ;)
